I just bot a this machine a few weeks ago, my electric start worked fine this morning(10 deg F) and I plowed for about 45 minutes(winch up/down). I shut the unit off and about 30 min. later went to restart, and I got nothing, no engine turnover whatsoever....totally dead...the unit pull-started fine, and the winch and headlights still work, so I know the battery is not totally dead..any ideas on what to try first in order of increasing severity? fuse, ignition relay, starter switch, starter motor?? Is it possible the battery needs to be charged close to 100% to turn it over??
thanks for any ideas...

 

Check the battery voltage when engine is not turning over and let me know.
Also, what is the battery brand/model? Its rating should be 14-amp-hr or higher.

 

Ok, will do on both..I'll check it out this weekend, Thanks very much for responding, I appreciate it!
